How do the End Links From the Roadmaster Kit # RM-1139-173-00 Install on a 2015 Ford F-350

Question:

Hi, I have 2015 Ford F-350 Super Duty. I was considering this kit part # RM-1139-173-00, but I have 5 questions/concerns: 1. There are no installation instructions for the end links provided in this kit. 2. It looks like this kit is missing mounting hardware for the polyurethane clamps. This kit is for trucks without factory sway bar and there are no bolts provided and no existing bolts on the truck. 3. Will this kit work with Ford factory installed 5th wheel tow preparation package? 4. What size are the bolts for the end links?

Thank you for the questions about the Roadmaster Rear Anti-Sway Bar and End Link Kit # RM-1139-173-00 for your 2015 Ford F-350 Super Duty.

I spoke with my contact at Roadmaster who wasn't sure why they don't have specific instructions for the end link kit but he did say that you just connect the links to the sway bar and then lift them up to holes in the frame which allow them to hang straight down.

This kit is comprised of 2 different kits; the sway bar kit # RM-1139-173 and the End Link Kit # RM-590170-00. The sway bar kit is for if the pickup has a factory sway bar. If the pickup doesn't have the factory sway bar then the end link kit is needed which actually includes the hardware to install the clamps.

My contact at Roadmaster said that you shouldn't have any problems getting this to fit with your OEM prep package. You can verify this by checking to see if there are bolt holes available in the frame where the end links will attach.

There are 2 different size bolts for the end links; 1/2" and M12. The other 4 bolts that come in the kit for the clamps are 3/8" - 1-1/2". Please note that you won't want to tighten any of the clamps or end link bolts until they are all attached and in the proper place.

The installation kit for the sway bar has been linked for you to reference.
